The New Orleans Saints regular season schedule is out, and one of the biggest surprises is the team not having any primetime games. This is the first time in 25 years that the team will not play in primetime. The last time the Saints did not have a primetime game was in 2000. The reasons behind this decision could be because the Black and Gold are coming off of four non-playoff season, finishing 5-12 in 2024. The decision could also be because they have a first-year head coach and are potentially starting a rookie at quarterback. Kellen Moore enters his first season as a head coach and is currently the youngest head coach in the NFL. Second-round draft pick Tyler Shough is the favorite to get the starting quarterback position now that Derek Carr is retired. Shough will have to compete with Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener to win the job. You can see the Saints full schedule here.
